Spring has arrived in Dawesville, bringing a burst of life and colour despite some challenging weather. The Geraldton Wax and Wattle are in full bloom, their petals creating a tapestry of colour across the landscape. Adding to this vibrant display, the Banksia flowers are showing off their bright hues, making spring a truly spectacular season in this part of the world.

Community Green Spaces: An Urban Oasis

The Dawesville Town Team is working tirelessly to enhance the town's green spaces. Their seed bombing efforts have sparked the growth of an Urban Garden and a Sanctuary Park in Florida and Melros. These initiatives will not only beautify the area but also create sanctuaries for both people and wildlife. With seedlings just emerging, there's hope that these green spaces will thrive, undisturbed by local bunnies.

Wildlife-Friendly Initiatives

In a commendable move, the Dawesville Town Team has not forgotten the local wildlife. They have included their favourite native plants in the urban landscape and have strategically placed water stations to support the animals through the drier months. This thoughtful addition ensures that the local fauna can enjoy the new green spaces alongside Dawesville's residents.

Join the Fun with Friendship Rocks

Friendship Rocks are popping up throughout Dawesville, each one uniquely painted and placed to bring a smile to those who find them. Community members are encouraged to take photos of these rocks and share their locations on the Dawesville Rocks group. For those looking to spread a little joy, painting and hiding your own rocks is a delightful way to participate in this community project.

Weather Expectations for Spring

As spring unfolds, residents of Perth and the south-west can expect average daytime temperatures, providing a perfect climate for outdoor activities. Rainfall is predicted to remain within the typical range for the season, offering a balance of sun and showers that will nurture the spring blooms and green initiatives throughout the region.

Road Safety and Community Growth

With Dawesville's population on the rise, roads are expected to be busier this spring than in previous years. This increase in traffic serves as a reminder for all road users to be considerate and patient, ensuring everyone can enjoy the beauty and vibrancy of the season safely.

Get Involved and Make a Difference

Spring is the ideal time to engage with nature and the community. Whether dusting off gardening tools to tend to personal gardens or volunteering at community gardens, there are numerous ways to get involved. Those with spare landscaping supplies are invited to donate to the Dawesville Town Team, supporting their valuable projects in greening the community.
